Hi. We are a design/style LA based company specializing in mixing eclectic styles on moderate budgets. Also we have a strange amount of fun blogging about all our design and style adventures. Right now I’m happy to say that I’m Target’s home spokesperson, bringing accessible/stylish design to the masses.

Before we leave for the new year (one.more.week!!), I wanted to give you a mountain house update and sneaky peek. It’s official. WE ARE DONE. RENOVATION COMPLETE. Well, with phase 1 anyway. We are moving up there this weekend and staying through the holidays. You guys KNOW that it’s kinda hard for me to publicly… Read More …

Happy Sunday, folks. I know it is a bit out of the regular to be posting over the weekend, but we are feeling very “extra” right now. I’m in the decorating phase of the mountain house (will be doing SO much over the break) and I had pinned a ton from The Citizenry, a company… Read More …

Interior Design Blog by Youxi988

I started this interior design blog in 2010 as a journal of my style and home projects with the belief that design should be approachable, informational and accessible no matter what budget.

As a home style expert who has a strong commitment to peeling back the intimidating layers of the world of home decor, and showing how every person can have a beautiful home that represents their personality, no matter what the budget.

After styling for magazines and catalogues for years, I started my own interior design blog, won HGTV Design Star, and have gone on to host my own hit TV show Secrets from a Stylist, Author the book STYLED, and create the design firm Youxi988 Design.

My motto has always been to write and publish on my blog what I personally want to read about.
